"First Viewing Plot: Two employees at a gift shop can barely stand each other, without realizing that they are falling in love through the post as each other's anonymous pen pal. Uncynical and sincere, The Shop Around the Corner is a charming and engaging Hollywood classic based on a 1937 Hungarian play.

"Who fancies watching a Christmas film starring James Stewart? My, what an enthusiastic reaction! Did I mention it's not 'It's a Wonderful Life'? Wait, come back! 'It's a Wonderful Life' (1946) isn't the only great Christmas film starring Jimmy. There's also the lesser known 'The Shop Around the Corner', a cracking little romantic comedy/drama which became the inspiration for the 1998 Tom Hanks/Meg Ryan vehicle 'You've Got Mail'. Wait, come back! 'The Shop Around the Corner' is another fantastic"
